If you've ever dealt with acne, you have probably experimented with niacinamide-based products. However, acne is quite a complicated condition, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution for treating it and the resultant spots.

Niacinamide has recently become widely known for calming inflammation, boosting hydration, and reducing dark spots. However, it might not be the holy grail for treating acne completely.  

Niacinamide is an incomplete solution

Before delving into why niacinamide is inefficient for treating acne, here is a quick refresher on how an acne breakout occurs. In simple terms, it results from the clogging of pores with oil and dead skin cells, which become infected with bacteria. 
Using niacinamide as an independent ingredient will only help superficially to reduce the swelling and redness associated with acne. Niacinamide is not naturally potent enough by itself to deal with all the concerns related to acne. While it regulates the sebaceous glands’ activity, reduced oil production in the skin cannot address acne at the root of the problem: the bacteria. Moreover, removing the acne marks requires higher concentrations, such as 5% niacinamide. This is of no use either, as it can cause mild burning; flaky, irritated skin; redness; and sudden breakouts.
However, the good news is that you needn’t worry about your stubborn acne. A revolutionary combination of thymol and terpineol works brilliantly on all issues and types of acne.

Perfect skincare with the right approach

The dual-action TT technology, fortified by thymol and terpineol, serves as a targeted treatment by going deep within your pores to control acne, improve skin texture, and restore the skin’s natural microbiome. It is clinically proven that this potent combination reduces acne from day 3.
This innovative technology contains the strength of two anti-acne active ingredients. These two synergistically target the acne-causing bacteria without disturbing the good bacteria on the skin. Thymol effectively penetrates and ruptures the acne-causing bacteria’s cell walls. Terpineol is the second ingredient that increases the permeability of the bacterial cell walls and ensures the unhealthy bacteria cannot flush out the substances that will kill them. This formulation is high science at its best, working to give you an even skin tone and reduce acne marks in 2 weeks.

Although niacinamide is claimed to be an anti-inflammation and anti-spots ingredient, it is also targeted for certain types of usage in specific people, depending on their skin issues. You need a higher concentration to effectively remove acne spots, which can be counterproductive and induce irritation. The caveat is that it is not a reliable solution for treating different types of acne. On the other hand, high-science formulations like the TT technology not only fight acne but also fade acne spots, ultimately improving the texture of your skin.
